SOUTH AFRICAN 1908-1993 Xhosa Girl with Goats signed oil on board 46 by 59cm R40 000 – 60 000 428 A member of the New Group, Nerine Desmond nurtured a long-held interest in pastoral themes and often painted sheep or goats and their herders. It may be assumed that this work was painted in the mid 1950s when other known works on related themes were produced. With a sure sense of design developed during her studies at the Central School of Art in London, Desmond transposes the black of the herder’s head cloth and bowl to the goats to suggest a unity of nature and culture. Her knowledge of animal anatomy underlies the rhythmic movement of the goats and provides a sound foundation for this idyllic scene of rustic contentment. 429

Shy and sensitive, he kept to himself and did not enjoy the rough games of his more robust schoolmates. When he was older his father expected him to help on the farm, but on Saturday afternoons and Sundays, when everybody else in the little farming community came together, Domsaitis preferred to paint on his own, depicting farm scenes, landscapes and animals. Spring, a romantic impressionist painting done before he had any tuition, 445 shows the surprising technical ability on which he concentrated at this stage.” 446 Pranas DOMSAITIS SOUTH AFRICAN 1880-1965 Landscape, Cropiens signed with the artist’s initials and dated 05 oil on canvas 29,5 by 42cm R40 000 – 60 000 A similar example is in the collection of the Lithuanian Art Museum, Vilnius, Lithuania. 446

Berman writes on Payne’s fi rst solo exhibition after his return from studying in London: “Among the items on view was the innovative screenprint, Colour Test, in which he made use of a 63 by 90cm enlargement of his personal Identity Card, 504 replacing the portrait photograph with a replica of the standard multiple-dot test for colour- blindness. The integration of these ‘readymade’ componenents produced a statement that was both artistically valid and conceptually signifi cant.” Similiar examples form part of the Iziko National Gallery Permanent Collection and the Wits Art Museum.

I had been toying with the idea of combining silver into a bronze and decided that this would be the ideal piece. I cast the chest in silver, surrounding it in a rich russet-colour bronze which emphasises the silver. The second novel idea was to use a polyurethane resin as a base for the bronze. This simulates water, giving both a wonderful refl ection and refraction.’ Robert Leggat (2016) African Jacana (Actophilornis Africanus) [Online], Available: http://www. robertleggat.co.za/sculpture/sculptures/birds/ 519 medium-birds/african-jacana/ [28 August 2016].

SOUTH AFRICAN 1951- Bifi dity signed, dated ‘08 and numbered 10/30 wood height: 35cm R25 000 – 40 000 “The design of BIFIDITY is based on a smaller sculpture made as part of the Blind Alphabet Project in 1993. The original piece was made small enough so that it could be picked up and easily handled by a blind person. The original work made for the Blind Alphabet Project was accompanied by a Braille plaque containing this text quote: BIFID, BIFIDATE, BIFIDITY Something bifi ,d or bifi date is cleft so that it divides into two parts, some will erroneously say, ‘forked’, like a bifurcated form. If, however, we study the Latin fi ndere that gave rise to bifi ,d and see that it means ‘cleave’, then bifi d assumes its rightful meaning.” Willem Boshoff .

In that fi nal year at Michaelis, Subotzky spent most of his working time over three months inside the walls of Pollsmoor Prison, a hopelessly overcrowded correctional facility largely controlled by gangs, talking to the prisoners and the warders, teaching classes in photography to the inmates, taking his own images.” Sue Williamson.
